Januar 2014 16:19 An: cygwin Betreff: [bulk] - Re: Reduce noise in dependency declaration during uninstall in setup.exe [...] One solution to this would be to reimplement it as two separate parts - a non-Cygwin envelope (which could even be installed as an msi) and a Cygwin-based package maintainer. The Cygwin-based part would be a completely separate Cygwin installation, with its own cygwin1.dll, and a minimal set of utilities, and would not interfere with the main installation. The non-cygwin wrapper would simply install/update this mini-Cygwin system and invoke the Cygwin-based package maintainer. I second this idea. The package maintainer would be based on the existing setup.exe, I think this is not that good. If you rewrite the tool you should throw away ballast and use the chance to include new helpful things like a clean interface to an installation config file which allows cloning of existent installations.

can not mount Windows shares correctly
Hi all, Situation : A windows shared NAS to which I can connect using net use 192.168.109.252\\storage /user:PC06\\user1 passwd but then it is not possible to mount it to lets say /cygdrive/b mount 192.168.109.252\\storage /cygdrive/b mount: warning - /cygdrive/s does not exist. mount: defaulting to 'notexec' mount option for speed since native path references a remote share.

perl switch question /setup.exe
Hi all, As far as I understand the discussion it is necessary to reinstall all modules which are not part of the cygwin packages. Because this will consume a lot of time (rebase manually after every step etc. ) I want to keep the old Version of perl for some time. Is there a way to prevent setup.exe installs the new version permanently .

AW: [bulk] - Directory structuring
Hi Paul, Von: PaulAThompson Gesendet: Mittwoch, 27. Juni 2012 00:09 Betreff: [bulk] - Directory structuring I am very confused about the correct manner of defining directory paths under cygwin, perl, and bash. I cannot determine the correct manner. Using the cygwin window, I navigate to locations using cd /cygdrive/c/subdir Using a bash shell to run a perl process under the shell and passing in a directory, I must use a windows-style specification with *nix forward slashes c:/subdir I have tried a number of manner of using cd within the bash shell to change directories without any success [zac] As far as I can reproduce all windows/terminals under cygwin using the bash. So the reason for your problem might be located somewhere else. Is there a simple guide to the path specifications? This seems simple, but I cannot figure out the correct specification Within the bash shell, I have tried cd /cygdrive/c/subdir cd /cygdrive/c/subdir cd c:/subdir cd c:/subdir None of these work [zac] All of them should work! So what exactly is the reaction you get from the bash ?? Best regards Norbert DEWEK 2012, 11th German Wind Energy Conference, 7-8 November 2012 in Bremen http://www.dewek.de/ -- Dipl. Phys.

parallel installations of cygwin
Hi all, We have a bunch of scripts running under cygwin version 1.5.x. Because they are used every day it is not considered as a good idea just to install the actual version and hope that everything works. Therefore I want to know if it is possible to have both installation (1.5 and 1.7) on the same machine. For 1.5 I found something on the net but this is from 2001 http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2001-10/msg00625.html It states that it is not possible because (as far as I understand) the mount table is realized by using the registry. http://www.cygwin.com/1.5/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#mount-table says : The current user's table is located under HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Cygnus Solutions/Cygwin/mounts vversion where version is the latest registry version associated with the Cygwin library (this version is not the same as the release number). For me this sound like it is no problem to install the 1.7 version along with the 1.5 if I use a different directory as root. Is it that simple ?? Thanks Norbert -- Dipl. Phys.

After updating cygwin to the newest version after 3 Month I get a strange error
if I start the Xwindow with bash as usual
/bin/find: `standard output': Bad file descriptor

I can trace that to the attempt of /etc/profile to read /etc/profile.d
# Run all of the profile.d scripts
# Note that these are supplied by separate packages
# Ascending alphanumerical order enforced
#next line for debugging
echo before trying to read /etc/profile
if [ -d /etc/profile.d ]; then
while read f; do
if [ -f ${f} ]; then
. ${f}
fi
done - EOF
`/bin/find -L /etc/profile.d -type f -iname '*.sh' -or -iname '*.zsh' |
LC_ALL=C sort`
EOF
fi
#next line for debugging
echo after trying to read /etc/profile
after adding the debugging lines I get
before trying to read /etc/profile
/bin/find: `standard output': Bad file descriptor
/bin/find: Schreibfehler.
after trying to read /etc/profile
but if I execute the /bin/find line from the xwindow everything works as
expected.
So do someone has an idea what's going on here ??

Additional Infos: Strange error during /etc/profile
Hi all,
the error only shows up if I start from a network drive.(Netware)
If I modify /etc/profile like
MYPWD=$(pwd);
cd /cygdrive/c
[ do stuff...]
cd $MYPWD
everything works fine.

strange behaviour of Xfig under cygwin
Dear all, if I try to open a library in 3.2.5b first it takes a long time before the menu open. Than after selecting a Library to load I get a lot of errors File xxx.fig Figure resolution or coordinate specifier missing in line 5 Error reading xxx.fig By the way get this error also if I use the file open menu for the library files What is really strange is if I open the same files on a different computer it works without a problem. The fstab is also the same on both computers. The only difference I see is that the computer on which I have the problem has a Portuguese (Brasil) language settings in Windows Had someone encounter similar problems or know a solution for this?

AW: [bulk] - Re: Inconsistent escaping of bash commands (depends on the first command)
Hi all, my problem is similar to the escaping problem I use generate and print print pdf from command line. To print I use the windows gsprint program. printer=-printer XXX\hplj-4700DTN opts=-all -ghostscript \c:\\Programme\\gs\\gs8.63\\bin\\gswin32c.exe\ [1] /cydrive/c/Programme/gs/gsview/gsprint.exe $opts $printer \$1\ Or [2] cmd /C c:\\Programme\\gs\\gsview\\gsprint.exe $opts $printer \$1\ Both version work. But they don't find the fonts located under [3] /usr/share/ghostscript/fonts OR [4] c:\Programme\cygwin\usr\share\ghostscript\fonts [4] is the contend of the Windows environment var GS_LIB If I start the printing form a cmd shell (started from Windos) all the font where found by gsprint. From my point of view there is an inconsistency between starting a window program form a cmd shell direct from windows and starting the same program from a cmd shell which is stared from cygwin.

AW: [bulk] - sshd - sftp problem (perl demo)
Hi,
Von: Sisyphus
Gesendet: Dienstag, 27. Juli 2010 07:37
An: cygwin
Betreff: [bulk] - sshd - sftp problem (perl demo)
Hi,
I have the following perl script that attempts to connect (from native
Windows) to an sshd server (either localhost, which is a Cygwin sshd server,
or a remote linux host)
and create a Net::SSH2::SFTP object.
###
use warnings;
use Net::SSH2;
my ($host, $user, $pass) = qw(blah blah blah);
my $ssh2 = Net::SSH2-new;
die can't connect unless $ssh2-connect($host);
print Connected\n;
die can't authenticate
unless $ssh2-auth(username = $user,
password = $pass);
Have a look at
http://prlmnks.org/html/569657.html
they mentioned that auth does not work
# authorize
# this works but I use keys below
# $ssh2-auth_password('z','foopass') or die Unable to login $@ \n;
#this dosn't work
#$ssh2-auth(username='z', interact = 1);
Maybe it helps.
Have fun
Norbert

I think they automatically (and temporarily) fall off the list if they're not sufficiently up-to-date, which I'd guess is something to do with the large numbers of updates recently. Dresden and Bochum are still working fine for me. Strange ! How long does it take to get the package list from them ??

Zacharias! As per definition of a text as multiple strings. You don't need to argue over it, just document it properly :) Converting a NUL to a EOL would be very strange behavior. Strange? I don't think so. I expect text data from text file. Not binary stream. If the content of a file is binary or text has nothing to do with the file structure. As an example a executable is a file as well. So what you expect does not matter! The inner structure of a file depends on the creator of the file. Inner structure of a REG_SZ variable is a... (surprize!) string! Correct! A zero terminated c-style string! So agin what is your problem? I don't think you really know what you're asking for. I know. Look at windows own regedit and Registry Browser FAR plugin as two examples. They do such two-way conversion transparently for user. If you think that such a tool is a good idea, just contribute it. I don't think I need tools to filter string from string. So why you bother us with this issue? By the way I really don't know why you wasting time on writing mails instead of writing a short piece of code to handle such a string. I really don't know why you wasting time accusing me of wasting time? (I hope you got the point? It's my time, and I spending it as I see it fit) You get all the information that you need to work with the registry. Insisting on that other people should do an additional work just to please you will considered (at least by me) as wasting time and increasing informational noise because there is nothing new or valuable in the additional mails . Eg. in perl it is just one command called chomp. May be. I don't know Perl. Thats your problem ;-= But to be serious just remove the last char from the string that's all.(simple isn't it ??) In case you are using C you can even omit that because terminating a string with a zero byte is the native way of C to represent strings. Have a nice day Norbert -- Dipl. Phys.

The script below worked without problems last month. But now I get
Segmentation fault (core dumped).
If I use the lines which begins with
#this works fine
instead of the one with GetWordExe it works fine.
I tested it with the latest update
Sorry that it is not shorter but it is the shortes form to get it work.
Have a nice day

For me this stuff works fine and without problems under Cygwin.
I got around that by using regular pipes.

I am not aware of the purpose of the two scripts that I modified, but
the fixes made my build succeed.
It isn't clear from your email what you are attempting to accomplish but
it sounds like you are trying to build cygwin using a non-cygwin-aware
version of perl. If that is the case, then this is not of interest to
the project or this mailing list.
In the patch below many of the changes are either inexplicable or just
whitespace so I haven't spent much time trying to figure out if there
is a bug fix in there. I suspect that, since many people are building
the Cygwin DLL, there can't be much of a problem.

BTW, and back on the main topic: I spent ten minutes last night (don't have
a lot of spare time) trying to reproduce the problem, since I happen to have
an eclipse install lying around. I installed the latest version of the EPIC
plugin, which was .33 compared to the .27 you are using, and I'm using a
version of the DLL with the atexit patch.
Are you shure that the .33 version is the version of the Perl Debug Plug-In
not the version of the EPIC Source Plug-in (vernr. 0.6.35)??
( help-About Eclipse Platform - Features Details-EPIC Project -Plug-in
Details-Perl Debug Plug-in)
Not having used EPIC debugger before I wasn't quite sure what to look for,
but once I figured out how to configure it I was able to run your helloworld
example and step over it. I didn't see any hang, or launching delegate
stuff, it seemed like it was working; I could step over the print statement
and see the output and let the program run to completion.
So you should at least try updating your EPIC to the latest, maybe it'll
work for you too.
As far as I can figure out it is the latest version I use. I use the autoupdate
feature and a manual update try don't change anything
But I discovered a small change in the perl output regarding on which
cygwin1.dll
version Iuse.
In a xterm with bash using
/usr/bin/perl5.10.1.exe -d hw.pl
I get

DB1.
The difference is the dot after DB1
Exactly there eclipse hangs. (have a look at the attachment)
Do anyone have an idea why if only the cygwin1.dll is changed
the behavior of perl differs in this way??
I think the RE of eclipse which waits for the prompt fails because of the dot.
Have a nice time

Get eclipse, install epic Perl Debug Plug-in 0.6.27 , write a simple perl script like #! /usr/bin/perl -w print(hello world\n); try to debug as Perl Local and you will see the debugger hanging around. Sorry but neither I have the knowledge to figure out which call of perl triggers the problem nor I have the time to get it. Sounds like we'll have to live with Eclipse not being able to debug perl locals then because I'm not going to break a long-running tradition of keeping all of my computers Eclipse-free. First of all if you deciede not to use Eclipse because of religious believes it is ok! Second I know it is hard to fix things if the reports are unspecific. But I'm really not able to give more precise reports. Corinna send different dlls which I testedaccording to her advice and give feedback. I suggest to do the same in your case. Third If the same Programm works well with one Version of Cygwin and not with a newer Version of Cygwin it is not the fault of the Programm Forth if the Programm did not work with a patch applied dll but without the patch the reason has to do with the patch. Maybe not the patch itself but at least with its side effects. At least if this problem is not fixed we will just use the old cywin version which runs without any problems and not stop using Eclipse/perl.

One Problem solved other found - dlclose not calling destructors
Hi all, after Corinna solved the executable flag issue on NWFS another strange thing happened. I use Eclipse Version: 3.4.2 Build id: M20090211-1700 with the EPIC Plugin to develop Perlscripts. After installing the new cygwin1.dll which handles the NWFS execute flag my debugger hangs at the stage 'launching delegate' . Then Corrinna sends me a cygwin1.dll where the patch http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-cvs/2010-q1/msg00065.html was not applied. With this dll the debugger works. So it seems that the patch has side effects. Have a nice day Norbert -- Dipl. Phys.

File format problem after updatin to 1.7.1
Hi all, i have just updated to 1.7.1 an run in trouble. During the previous installations there was a switch which sets the used file format Dos/Unix. This switch did not only disappear also the former uses file format (DOS) was set to Unix underhand . The result is that a lot of scripts did not work anymore because they produce a bunch of lines bash: $'\r': command not found instead of the expected output. I'm not able to filter all the scripts and files to remove the DOS line separator so I have to set the file format correctly. As far I can see there is no topic in the user manual which covers this issue also nothing in the FAQ. Would someone be so kind to tell me how to do this or if this is not possible how to downgrade cygwin? Kindly regards Norbert -- Dipl. Phys.
